    Snowpeak New SPA M60 Coming for those who love tinkering

    The Snowpeak might be a bit rough around the edges, but they're designs works very well. They're robust and easy to work on and the perfect learning platform. My first of this brand was a PR900W. It was so cheap and looked like a fun .177. It was a bit fussy with pellets at first. But because...

    What do you expect from slug accuracy?

    I am formost a hunter. My go to slug used to be the KO .217, but the last batch was no good. Dies are getting old and apparently they are going to stop making them in .217. I am happy if I can put a five shot group down in a 1/2 to 3/4 consistently at 50m. The old KO .216 did not work in my...

    Slugs in Break Barrels

    I have had very good accuracy at only 760fps with slugs in my .22 Spa barrels. Once you have a gun that "prints" with them, you will never shoot pellets again. I have tried going back, but slugs are sooo much better with wind. The JSB KO is priced almost the same as pellets. A lot of break...

    How Much Pellet Lube?

    I put my slugs in a bigger tin and just give the tin a quick silicone spray. Ballistol reacts with lead after a wile. I stored some pellets with Ballistol and found them a few months later looking all pale. It is the best thing for air rifle everywhere else it seems. Doesn't eat orings and takes...

    Snowpeak New SPA M60 Coming for those who love tinkering

    Any news on the M60 yet? It will be avaliable in a bottle vertion as well. I hope it is tuneable for power like the other Spa/Snowpeak guns. The longer 600mm barrel is a good starting point.

    Tuning for slugs

    Here is my take. I have a M22 with extra plenum and did some porting. I tuned for JSB KO 24.39 slugs. First find at what speed you get the best uccuracy. Slugs like a higher reg pressure so that the velve will close quick and elliminate muzzle blast. It is more important with shorter barrels to...

    Tuning Ideas for Tuniinig artemis M11/M22 5.5mm airgun

    A bit of a late reply, but my M22 is lazer accurate with all alugs from 22grm to 30grn. I bought the gun second hand with a LW poly barrel and power tune with added plenum. The poly barrel was no good. It might be the bad machining at the breach. I foud a cheap M22 barrel and did a pollish...

    Best velocity for shooting slugs vs. pellets

    This is a older tread, but for interest sake. My rifle like .217 slugs, but it seems to shoot the .216 KO slugs quite good if they go slow. If you look at Strelock, you will see that a KO slug at 760fps wil give you the same trajectory as a 18grn Jsb pellet at 900fps. The slug actually improves...

    most accurate slugs 22/25 cal and barrels?

    My Spa M22 with a power tune and pollished barrel seems to like all the .217 slugs from 23grn to 30grn that I have tried.

    Tuning Ideas for Tuniinig artemis M11/M22 5.5mm airgun

    The M22 is great. I have a extra plenum installed from Xtreme Airguns. It gives me 50fpe at full power. To shoot slugs... I tapred the lead of the barrel. Sand it with cone shaped sandpaper until slug slips in easy. You can make a tool with a drill, but be careful and make sure you stay...
